I've been off playing at Disneyland for the last week.  Sorry for the lack of posts.  Now that we're back I wanted to let you know there will be free shipping on orders over $25 for today and tomorrow.  We'll also be offering discounts on International shipping.  This is a great time to get all the supplies you need for your Holiday crafts.   So stop by All Scrapbook Steals and stock up.  Happy Crafting.

Spooky Fireplace Mantel

Have you seen this hauntingly adorable fireplace mantel by Amber Packer?  I love the decoupaged pumpkin on a candlestick.  You can find complete instructions for how to create your own spooky mantel here.  You can find My Minds Eye's Haunted line for 40% off this week over at All Scrapbook Steals.  Happy Crafting.

October's Giveaway Winner

Thanks again for another fantastic giveaway.  As always, we love reading all your comments about what products you love.  I can also tell that most of you are about as obsessed with Halloween as I am.  And, since you're such a creative bunch, we're going to mix things up next month and have a contest so you can show off your creative genius.  The theme will be something Holiday related so start plotting.  And don't forget to sign up for our e-mail list so you can be entered to win a Silhouette SD by QuicKutz.

40% off Haunted by My Minds Eye

 

I love this Halloween Beauty Queens layout by Tamara Jensen using My Minds Eye's Haunted line.  I think she was so clever to use a black and white photo to keep with the old time creepy feeling.  You can find the whole line for 40% off today only at All Scrapbook Steals.  Happy Crafting.

Doodlebug Halloween House

I am not a fan of scary Halloween decorations.  I am drawn much more to cute, kid friendly things.  That's why I love this darling Halloween house by Doodlebug designs.  You can buy the plain white houses from All Scrapbook Steals for 50% off retail.  They come flat, and you just pop them up and start decorating.  These would be so cute using Doodlebug's line Spooky Town, or Echo Parks new Happy Halloween line, both available for 25% off.  Happy Crafting.

My House at Halloween

Here's a little peek at some of my Halloween decorations for this year.  Don't you adore the little raven with his "Nevermore" sign?  I love clever home decor.
